From the owner

Dolphin House is a lovely traditional Cornish Cottage sitting beautifully in the heart of Port Isaac’s historic fishing village on the North Cornwall coast. Foodies will find Nathan Outlaw’s 2 Michelin starred restaurants a few minutes walk away. Rock and Padstow's restaurants are approx 20-30 minutes drive (Rick Stein, Paul Ainsworth & Prawn on the lawn). In and around the village are a wide selection of cafes, pubs and restaurants.

Dolphin House comfortably accommodates up to 10 people.

The large, cosy lounge with comfy sofas is perfect for a relaxing evening by the log fire after exploring Port Isaac and the surrounding coastal villages.

There is a newly fitted kitchen (2022) for preparing those laid back family meals to be enjoyed in the dining room or if you are lucky in the garden!

Dolphin House’s 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms plus downstairs toilet provides plenty of space for the perfect family get-away. Barbara Hawkins’s works adorne the lounge and some bedroom walls. Barbara is a reknowned Cornish artist. Her husband is a hugely successful potter and founder member of the fisherman’s friends shanty singers.

On sunny days the front and rear gardens provide an ideal playing out space for the children or for al fresco drinks for the adults.

Dolphin House is a gem tucked away in the winding streets of the village.

Dolphin House provides free wifi.

I’m truly delighted by your review, and apologise for the late response. You sum up the house and the area perfectly for other possible guests, and the hot tub idea worked really well and I intend to try one next year myself.
